[PHP] Problems downloading a PDF
Hi,
I'm building this site that has several PDFs to download, but only to
registered users.
To prevent people to insert the full URL to the documents, i moved them
outside Apache's DocumentRooot, which is /var/www.
My site is in /var/www/telbit and i put the PDFs in /var/www
I've coded in order to do the trick, but it's failing.
I can't get the name of the file.
Notice that the page which has the code is products-teststudio.php itself.
The code follows my signature.
Any help would be appreciated.

You are echoing stuff before sending the file that is not possible. So
remove the echo and it should work. If not, try this for debugging:
if(!is_readable($full)) echo the file $full is not readable by apache;
else {
//same as before
}

you cannot do this. you are sending output here, html output, so the
webserver sends the html headers for it. and later you try to send a pdf
and corresponding headers in the same script. that will never work.

You don't need to basename() it, you already know what the filename is,
because it was requested via $_GET['file'].
I would say almost the opposite:
?php
if (isset($_SESSION['email'])) {
$error = false;
if (isset($_GET['file'])) {
$file = basename($_GET['file']);
$full = '/var/www/' . $file;
if (!is_readable($full))
$error = Invalid filename.;)
} else {
$error = No filename given.;
}
if ($error) {
echo a href=\products-teststudio.php?file=testudio.pdf\,
rel=\external\Download TESTUDIO flyer/a;
exit;
}
header('Content-type: application/pdf');
header(Content-Length: . filesize($full));
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename='. $file .'');
readfile($full);
exit;
} else {
echo Unauthorized Access!;
}
I would insert a file_exist check before you try and send it. It might
give you the cause of your problem.
always a good thing

Rich

Hi,
Ok, i've hardcoded the filename and i no longer get a 404 error.
But the PDF file i get is this:

that's what I said before. you echo out some html before the file
headers. that will never work.
remove the echo statement on line 14 and you should be okay

You are echoing stuff before sending the file that is not possible. So
remove the echo and it should work. If not, try this for debugging:
if(!is_readable($full)) echo the file $full is not readable by apache;
else {

(I'm assuming here that the directory in question contains only files that are available for download) given that the app will only generate urls for files that exist on the relevant path any file that is not found constitutes an attack of some sort. do you really care if the original url is: foo.php?file=bla.pdf and somebody does this (ending up with the file the original url pointed): foo.php?file=../../../bla.pdf ?

Much like a text captcha does. As it stands, I think most audio captchas use simply digits, which means you only need to understand [0-9] in your voice-breaker-code (http://vorm.net/captchas). Mixing in letters means another 26 variants, and if you went with words (which 'swift' will 'speak'), then you're in another stratosphere all together... D. Vin: That's an interesting idea. As I said in my last post on this subject sound files can convey different meanings than just recognizing that the word seven means providing 7 as a solution. However, we run into the problem of those with cognitive disabilities who may not be able to resolve the CAPTCHA solution. As I see it, this is a double edged sword. If a blog, for example, requires cognitive skills to derive benefit from, is it unreasonable to present a cognitive problem for the user to solve? Let's take an extreme example -- What if you had a blog that discussed color arrangements, would be be acceptable for the blog owner to put up a color-blind CAPTCHA? Interesting topics for discussion, but probable not for this list. Thanks everyone.

Unfortunately i do not have the time to properly test it, but I wrote a devoicecaptcha script to break the voice captchas of microsoft, google and paypal. You can download the code and test it with your code, see http://vorm.net/captchas. So unfortunately for you it will not work against spammers, but you are in good company of people trying ;-). Jochem: Thanks for the link, article (very interesting), and advice. The voice files that I am using could certainly be resolved by your method -- they are simple and your solution is pretty straightforward. However, I'm not convinced that all sound methodologies can be resolved as simply as that. For example -- your method looks for pauses/high points and then capsulizes segments for comparison against known sounds. That's OK, but what if there is other meaning in the sound? I often wondered why simple CAPTCHA's like Type the number seven four three, or What is the sum of two plus three?, or Spell cat, or Spell two wouldn't work? Certainly, one can create a routine coupled a dB to randomly produce thousands of different combinations of simple questions. Likewise, a sound file could be produced the same way. Perhaps I'm underestimating the capabilities of bots and overestimating the abilities of humans. I suspect that the distribution of both camps have an overlap and therein lies the problem. The problem may not have a solution. But to bring this back to my intent -- my intent here is to provide a simple audio CAPTCHA that could be used by anyone to provide some degree of protection for their personal use THAT would also be accessible to screen readers. It's not foolproof, but it appears to work in that regard. Interesting discussion -- thanks for your perspective.

It depends how you want to handle invalid data. If you're happy basenaming it to remove anything malicious, and then trying to see if the file still exists, then so be it. To me that is masking something bad to try and make it good, the end result being that you can't tell if someone is trying to screw with your script, or if you've simply got a typo in a link on your site somewhere. do you really care if the original url is: foo.php?file=bla.pdf and somebody does this (ending up with the file the original url pointed): foo.php?file=../../../bla.pdf Absolutely I care.

[PHP] finding a particular record within a MySQL result set
I've cross posted this to the MySQL list... Here's my original post. Is there some quick way to do the following in MySQL? (I know I can use PHP to search through the result set, but I wanted to see if there's a quick way using some sort of query) Let's say I know that Joe is from Maine. I want to do a query of all employees from Maine, ordered by hiring date, and figure out where Joe falls in that list. (i.e. which record number is he?) -James Here's my new plan of attack... Right now I'm trying to use PHP to do a binary search on the result set so I don't have to traverse the entire result set. I'm using PHP's mysql_data_seek() to move the pointer within the result set and looking at the data to do the necessary comparisons.

[PHP] Re: storing functions
The way I organize my stuff is that I have all of my object code, functions, and what not in a specific folder within their own separate files. If there is enough of a certain category of files to flood the directory, I will place those in their own subdirectory. I have separate grouping files that will join together specific combinations of them to create a single line include for the top of my files. So for instance, I might have a main include that ties in the standard functions I want to use. If I need additional features, I can include another grouping file that adds more functionality to the page. If constants are needed, they are all placed in a separate config file. The reason I do things this way is foremost to keep things organized. By having a constant file/directory structure, I don't have to search through 6 files to determine where I put a certain function. With the separate include file groupings, I avoid meaninglessly adding 3x the amount of code to a page when it will only utilize a small subset of it. The downside of it is that you tend to accumulate a LOT of php files if your site gains significant scope. However since they are all organized with a common naming scheme, it's fairly easy to keep track of them. Ross [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I am wondering how you store and recall your functions. I have an external file - functions.php, this includes all the functions for the site. It is included in the pages head and then I just use the functions when I need them. Does anyone have a better way to store/recall functions? R. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] finding a particular record within a MySQL result set

That's why I said the mysql group will give you better answers. Really, the best solution is to just get your answer from mysql.

[PHP] Re: finding a particular record within a MySQL result set
Maybe I'm way off here, but when you're looking for his numbered place in the record set, can't you just count the people before him? ID NAME STATE DATE 1 JoeMaine 2006-02-12 2 JimMaine 2006-01-12 3 James Maine 2006-03-12 4 John Maine 2005-05-12 5 Jordan Maine 2006-02-11 Pseudo-sql below that is untested and probably has a typo in it: SELECT count(*) FROM employees WHERE STATE='Maine' AND DATE (SELECT DATE FROM employees WHERE ID=1); You count the number of people that have a starting date before his and the same state. Wouldn't he be the next record after that? Depending on if you want the count from 0 or 1, change the to =.

From other posts that I've read, I think the safe thing is for me to put this file outside the web root, ensure it has a .php extension, set the include path to include this folder and include it in any pages that require it. Is this correct? Also, how do you handle the different environments: dev, test, and prod? I don't want to have to change the code every time I copy the file over. Do I have an independent file that determines if that folder should point to dev/test/prod? I generally use CVS to store my work and also to 'publish' stuff onto different setups/machines for testing/production, rather than moving/copying files manually - I find it alot easier to type 'cvs up -r SOME_TAG' and just have all the files updated with out having to think about which exactly files I must copy. I usually end up with a small config file that is not included in the [cvs] project (so it must be created manually for/in each installation) and have the project 'init' code check for the config file, require it and then test for the existance of some required constants/variables/etc - if the file is missing, not readable or expected constants/vars/etc are missing then the app dies with a suitable error message.

RE: [PHP] Audio CAPTCHA review request
I often wondered why simple CAPTCHA's like Type the number seven four three, or What is the sum of two plus three?, or Spell cat, or Spell two wouldn't work? Certainly, one can create a routine coupled a dB to randomly produce thousands of different combinations of simple questions. Likewise, a sound file could be produced the same way. HA! I was just about to write you that I just had this same brainstorm. Seems like it would be pretty hard to have a bot figure out what is the sum of two plus three?. I bet it would work like a champ (assuming you were helpful enough on your end to accept either five or 5... It drives me insane trying to post on the PHP.net function comments and it asks me that irritating question and I forget to spell out the answer. UGH! BTW, I should mention, I'm no fan of CAPTCHA in any form. Digg uses it, and it pisses me off because they do it for login and for posting. Seems it's all the rage with the kids these days, and I wonder how effective it is compared to how many people just won't post because of it -- I know I don't. But to bring this back to my intent -- my intent here is to provide a simple audio CAPTCHA that could be used by anyone to provide some degree of protection for their personal use THAT would also be accessible to screen readers. It's not foolproof, but it appears to work in that regard. Not sure you can make a one size fits all drop in CAPTCHA killa app. I think you can give someone the tools to do it (like how do I play an audio file, and know that the webform submitted an answer and if it matches, etc.) But like most security mechanizms, one is not enough. It's ultimately up to the developer to implement and extend the tools to fit their own needs for the project. If you want to prevent 30% of spambots, then your simple solution may be enough. If you're protecting a presidential candidates blog page, you probably need more protection in the 70%. If you're working for the NSA, then a secure login is going to be a first line of defense...
